Strand of Oaks: A Hoosier transplanted to the coal highlands of Northeast Pennsylvania, Timothy Showalter has nested in fertile musical soil. Taking cues from luminaries such as Nebraska-Era Bruce Springsteen and a burgeoning Neil Young, Showalter extends a musical gesture and searches to find modesty in the midst of confusion, addressing insecurities and settling existential debt with a simple and beautiful delivery. The personification of a midwestern Grandfather's advice, his songs smack with hard truth and poignant severity.
Tim Showalter - guitar, vocals
Jason Anderson - piano, vocals
Gregg Porter - vocals, cymbal

Catch Strand of Oaks now before they hit the big time. Once the college scene gets hold of this group they're going to be going places. Beautifully constructed music weaves in and out of lyrics that seem both sympathetic and empathetic. Grab a Lionshead, sit on the rail on a summer night, and stare into the Sesquehanna...that's Strand of Oaks for to me.
